They are all too deep into the drama!

Chapter 447: Investing in a DJ company by accident
On the filming set of "The Fission of the Qin Empire", there was a huge fight at this time.

Thousands of troupes were directly used, and more than 200 cavalry troupes were coordinated from various places.

Among the battle formations between the two sides, the Wei army's phalanx with the banner with the word "Wei" was equipped with sophisticated weapons and armor.

On the other side, the Qin army's group performance looked uneven, with even more young and old arrayed among them. Most of them were ordinary people wearing commoners and carrying various crude weapons and even farm tools.

Many people only know the power of Qin when it destroyed the Six Kingdoms, but they don't know that the Qin State was also a remnant of the Sixth Dynasty. It has a complicated path, from a country of fifty miles that raised horses for the Emperor of Zhou, to the position of wiping out the Six Kingdoms step by step.

According to the timeline in the play, the Qin State at this time has experienced four generations of chaos, its national power is weakened, Hexi has been lost, and even Hangu Pass has been lost. It is almost at the end of its rope.

Fortunately, Duke Xiang of Qin succeeded to the throne, and after many years of governance, the country's national strength gradually recovered, and he finally had the capital to fight Wei to regain the land in Hexi.

The scene shot today is of this battle, and it is also the beginning of the TV series!
Otherwise, the cost of historical dramas is high. The cost of such a large-scale war scene alone, including extras, rental of war horses, and loss of shooting equipment, is enough to cost less than half of an idol drama...

This was the first time for such a large crew to try a historical drama. The uncle and nephew were afraid that they would not be able to handle it, so they specially hired a foreign aid from Zhang Dabeard through Liu Tianxian's relationship.

Director Huang Jianzhong just filmed "King Gou Jian of Yue" two years ago and is relatively good at this kind of historical war drama.

Director Huang Jianzhong couldn't help but feel relieved when he heard this. A smile appeared on his old face and he nodded in agreement.

Without Huo Chengyin's support, even if he had the best idea, he would not be able to realize it...

Regarding big scenes, the crew is actually a little bit controversial.

With the development of computer special effects in recent years, many big scenes do not need to cost much.

Huo Mingjie's persistence directly convinced Huo Chengyin, and this time the cheap nephew expressed his attitude to the crew.

Huo Chengyin was originally a little tempted, but he couldn't stand it and his second uncle refused without thinking.

Although Huang Jianzhong has high qualifications in the industry, as a foreign aid brought in by his uncle and nephew, that means there is nothing more than the name of a director on his head.

In the past few months, everything from lines in the script to etiquette and clothing, to even daily decorative items and weapons and armored chariots on the battlefield, has been spared no expense in striving to present the most perfect effect.

In front of director Huang Jianzhong, although Huo Chengyin felt a little painful, he still patted his chest and promised:
"The special effects can be used, but there must be no missing big scenes. If Director Huang has any ideas, feel free to mention them. I will try my best to satisfy you!"

Just like today's scene, it can actually be filmed with only twenty horses and a hundred or so extras.

After spending so much money and effort before, do we still need to save this little money now?
"The Qin Empire" is a series. As long as the first part gets a good response, the company will continue to make it in the next few years!

Green Media has prepared a lot for this drama.

The crew of "The Great Qin Empire" and all the filming staff are basically Green Shadow Media's own team.

It’s only 08. Anyway, according to Huo Mingjie’s understanding of current special effects technology, it’s not yet ready to completely replace big scenes.

After unifying the opinions of the crew, today's filming officially started.

As soon as the order to start filming was given, the extras on both sides collided directly with each other under the command of the crew.

The camera shuttled around the set, recording all the scenes including the arrow array, the forest of guns, the flying stone carts, the fallen horses, the bloody killings, etc. that the crew prepared. Above the sky, there are also specially rented helicopters flying over to take aerial photography from above.

Huo Mingjie looked up at the sky above his head, but instead of staring at the helicopter, he noticed a drone also flying in the sky.

Um, by the way, it’s possible to shoot with a drone these days?
Huo Mingjie couldn't help but look at his cheap nephew beside him, pointed at the drone over there and asked:

"Where did you find this drone?"

Huo Chengyin has the reputation of being a crew producer, and because the company attaches great importance to this project, his nephew personally handles many things.

He knows most everything about the crew.

Huo Chengyin, who was still in front of the camera and staring with the director, heard this and turned his head to look in the direction of his second uncle's finger.

"Oh, um, Xiang Zixin previously invested in a Shenzhen-based technology company. That company recently wanted to develop drones for film and television shooting. This time they built a test machine and wanted to use it for the crew to try. …”

Speaking of this, Huo Chengyin couldn't help but clicked his tongue, shook his head and said:
"You don't know, it's too expensive to rent a helicopter, and it's not easy to use. If we can really get a drone specially used for film and television shooting, it would be quite promising, so I agreed."

Huo Mingjie blinked, with a slightly strange look on his face, and couldn't help but ask:

"What's the name of that company?"

Xiang Zixin was in Shanghai, managing the investment business for Huo Mingjie.

In the past two years, he has often invested in some new domestic technology companies.

At first, Huo Mingjie often asked, but as Xiang Zixin became more and more trustworthy in his work, and several investment projects successively made small gains, Huo Mingjie allocated a part of the funds for him to make the final investment, so he did not know the companies in these new investments...

After noticing that his second uncle seemed to be interested in this investment, Huo Chengyin was stunned for a moment, thought about it for a while, and then said with some uncertainty:

"Well, it seems to be called... Daqiang Innovation."

In fact, Huo Chengyin didn't pay much attention to the drone this time.

After all, this was just a test machine, and he didn't expect it to be of any use, otherwise he wouldn't have directly rented a helicopter to participate in the filming.

Even if Xiang Zixin hadn't come to say hello, he wouldn't even have had any impression. It was normal for him to be a little unable to remember the name of the company.

When Huo Mingjie heard this name, his heart suddenly moved.

Tsk tsk, it really is the one that sells civilian supplies, and then gets involved in the military industry!
This company was established in 06. In the early stage, due to lack of financial and technical support, the company's operations were very difficult.

I don’t know whether Xiang Zixin has good vision or good luck. Anyway, he made a small investment at that time...

At this time, Huo Mingjie couldn't help but laugh, feeling excited that he had gotten a big deal.

When I go back now, no matter what, I have to give Xiang Zi a new bonus!
